This points out a problem with streaming services generally - while it may have been Apple's DRM server that went down this time*, it could just have easily been the content server or account server or credit card processing server that went down.

*Although the theory in the article is that Apple's "DRM server" went down, I don't know if Apple has a dedicated DRM server - I would think that they would have multiple redundant servers for DRM, and that the problem is more complicated than just a server going down.
